Everyone in the Universe can see at a glance that I am NOT a narcissist!

So I dont see why you posted this damned thread (which is obviously about ME)!

Just kidding.


But seriously- I got 48 (midrange). Though going back in time towards adolesence Im sure my score would get progressively higher .

Dude, it's just some very short, innacurate (if I can say so), non-usable for a real diagnosis test :lol:
If people hated you for scoring high on it, they'd be dumb :lol:

I scored a 96.

It really doesn't surprise me; in fact, I actually expected that I would score higher than most people on this test. I tend to score rather high on a lot of narcissism tests.

I got 51. Honestly though I would probably score above average on an overt narcissism test. I don't think I'm actually narcissistic though. I do have difficulty with empathy and am often annoyed by other peoples feelings though.
Covert narcissism seems more like borderline pd I think.
I also see a lot of similarities with my ex gf.
It can be extremely irritating to listen to people complain about themselves. My own arrogance comes from wanting to smack people in the face when they do. I try to be tolerant but it's hard to not be annoyed.

That would make sense. Not only do I tend to score highly on narcissism screening tests, but I also tend to score highly on BPD screening tests.

58.

As with so many of these types of tests, the "correct" answers vary depending on the situation I'm in, and my mood that day.

65 - so more introverted than covert narcissistic, so a bit of both worlds really... I don't have many social encounters to hold any narcissistic resentments detailed...

I don't think this was the same test because I scrolled down and still did not find the actual test. So I took the one from PsychCentral and here is what I got.
Results of your

Your Total: 8

Between 12 and 15 is average.
Celebrities often score closer to 18.
Narcissists score over 20.

I got a 75, but personally wonder if many of the questions might naturally apply to an Aspie to begin with without necessarily being signs of narcissism.

What I liked was the picture of the dog with the headphones along with the comment about putting on headphones with no music playing in order to avoid having to deal with people. This reminds me so much of the behavior of people in hiding behind cellphones to avoid having to deal with people. There was an NBC news story a year or two ago about this saying that a survey showed that 15% of all cellphones calls were with nobody on the other end for this very reason.

74.

Sufficiently within the Average range that I choose not to focus on it too much.
